BURFORD CAPITAL LIMITED

Notification of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities

Burford Capital Limited ("Burford"), the leading global finance and asset management firm focused on law, provides the following notification of various PDMR transactions.

Burford has been notified of certain securities purchased on 5 October 2020 by Hugh Steven Wilson, Burford's Deputy Chairman. Mr Wilson purchased 20,590 Bank of New York Mellon-sponsored American Depository Receipts ( " ADR " ) representing Burford shares at a price of $8.95 per ADR.

As announced in 2018 and earlier in 2020, Jonathan Molot, Burford's Chief Investment Officer, transferred 6,000,000 ordinary shares in Burford to Jonathan Molot LLC ("JM LLC"), a company controlled by Mr Molot. Ongoing annual movement of ownership interests in JM LLC back-and-forth between Mr Molot and annual trusts established by Mr Molot of which he and his family members are the beneficiaries is expected as a normal part of the US estate planning undertaken. Certain further movement occurred on 7 October 2020, with a 5.569598% and a 25.284185% interest in JM LLC being returned to Mr Molot from the Jonathan T. Molot 2018 Trust and the Jonathan T. Molot 2019 Trust, respectively; those interests were in turn transferred on 8 October 2020 to Jonathan T. Molot 2020 Trust No. 2, of which Mr Molot is initially the sole beneficiary. These transfers do not affect the overall interest in shares in Burford held by Mr Molot and the associated annual trusts.

Additionally, Burford reports that on 5 October 2020 Burford's Employees' Benefit Trust delivered shares to the following persons discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs") who had previously been granted conditional share awards in prior years pursuant to the Burford Capital 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan. The vesting of the awards was subject to performance conditions, which were satisfied.
